Mary Shelley, born in 1797, suffered many losses in her lifetime, beginning with the death of her mother shortly after she was born. In addition to losing 3 of her own children, she dealt with the emotional toll of being rejected by family members for her life choices. Her relationship with her husband, author Percy Shelley, was tumultuous. It is not surprising that she battled depression for much of her life.

Emily Murphy, Irene Parlby, Nellie McClung, Louise McKinney and Henrietta Edwards were five Canadian activists who advocated in various ways for women and children. Perhaps they’re most remembered for their fight to achieve political equality, to have women legally considered persons so they could be appointed to the Senate.
